Coffee Anyone?

It is the aroma that lets me know it's time to start the day...


but even in the afternoon if I'm somewhere and catch a whiff of it brewing


I swear my eyes open a little wider, my heart starts beating faster


and my mouth starts to water


Anywhere you go in the world, it's what makes it feel like home





It is rushing around in the morning getting ready for work, and the kids ready for school


It is a rainy Sunday afternoon curled up with a good book


Those moments you keep for yourself before waking everyone up


Sitting outside on a cold day with your hands wrapped around a steaming mug





It's always been there like an old friend


Whether I'm chatting with friends at Starbuck's


Sitting up in bed watching the morning news with my husband


Or sharing someone's grief





It is simply, my obsession









This layout was inspired by Christi's Creative Prompt #18

The photos in the mosaic at the top and in the layout are from flickr...

I love flickr just browsing through people's photos, sounds kind of stalkerish I know but there are some very talented photographer's that post their work there.

Hope everyone is doing well...

Thanks for stopping by!

Mmmm. I just love coffee, too. I'm sitting here at the computer with it now. I told my husband how much I love the peppermint mochas at starbucks and he looked up the recipe, tried to buy all the ingredients (on Christmas Eve), but he couldn't find peppermint syrup so he bought creme de mint. It was SUPER yummy! Hey, I should blog about that! Anyway, I have some thoughts about true coffee lovers, see if I'm right about you. I always say true coffee lovers don't put sugar in their coffee. Is that you? Also, we can drink coffee at night and it won't keep us awake. Do you agree? Just curious.

Love the smell of coffee, but rarely drink it. I'm a diet pepsi drinker. But after reading this post and seeing that layout, I could become a coffee addict. LOL

Love the Layout!

Happy New Year!
